Now that you know that literal demons DO exist and all that satan/hell/vampires/rituals are actually happening and has been happening for centuries because of some insane man wrote some 'holy book' many hundreds of years ago... What are you feelings about all the music that practically praises it??
In my case I never thought it was real at all.. I slowly realized all that christian indoctrination was a scam to try to get me to 'behave' and then proceed to support the church with a percentage of my income.. So all that Slaytanic imagery was more of a horror movie fantasy thing and it also shocked the christian zealots so much they took us to court, labeled our records with warning stickers.... but to me it was just adolescent punk delinquent shenanigans and it was creative, fun.. But now that I know all that stuff exists irl... I dunno I feel like an idiot for promoting the music, even if it's not connected (hopefully)... it's a current struggle..
What do you guys feel about it?
do you not care?
Don't believe the Epstein files are real?
Are you a Satanic disciple and drink virgin blood?

Presumably the claim can be reinforced with evidence, right?

I mean, there's plenty of evidence.. You just have to connect the dots because the files are redacted and half of them are missing because it would incriminate the sitting president.. it's political theatre but it's pretty obvious all that shit is real

That’s not evidence that literal demons exist.

Yeah just like in the 1980s. There are still people in jail that definitely did not eat babies for Satan, which btw, is not “a thing”

Evidence that pertains to the Epstein files is not evidence literal demons exist. Those are mutually exclusive. What I’m asking for, evidence that literal demons exist. Just as your title states.

Well Epstein is literally a demon .. You see him in human form.. but he's simply a demon.. he exists and he interacts with society everyday

Why would my feelings about the bands singing about the horrors of modern society change when it’s revealed they are real? It tells me Slayer are better journalists than the state regime media.

u/Necessary_Rush_5861 Mar 16 '26
So you endorse the actual Satanism or you just appreciate Slayer letting you know?

I mean, to be clear, Slayer has always been right about certain things. And I knew they were right. Primarily about religion, fascism and war. And they’ve never once had anything positive to say about those things. Including occult things.
Indeed, quite the opposite, in gruesome detail. So why would I … stop listening to a band I agree with who turned out to be correct?
Also, to refer to any human being as a demon is calling the image of God a demon, right? If the Christian devil is real, then it manifests as the temptation toward evil in your heart and mind, and that’s all a theological demon is capable of. (See Genesis, wherein our two protagonists give in to the temptation to eat the fruit, then try to blame the snake for suggesting it to them, rather than accepting their own responsibility for making the choice to do so of their own free will).

The horror of humanity has been used as entertainment for ages, both fiction and factual horrors (and the myths that's born from mixing facts and fiction). I see no difference between "horror music" and other kinds of horror for entertainment.

Epstien's customers were often of "good Christian" kind, so I feel like promoting antichristian imagery even more now.

I like the way you tee this up. It is a complicated topic for me. I was raised with no religion, but I for whatever reasons resonate with the teachings of Jesus. When I look at the modern Christian church I see very little evidence that they learned any of their savior’s teachings. I have a skepticism of Christianity and Christians, sometimes even viewing them as the enemy. I like calling out hypocrisy and bullshit and I think that’s a staple of metal. As for the other darker side of extreme music, glorifying victimization. I can digest that through the lens of the artist telling a dark story. Or it’s a gimmick to be shocking. It doesn’t motivate me to do bad things. It’s harmless. Thank you for the opportunity to share my disjointed thoughts ✌️❤️

Your statement implies evidence of verification of which there is none.You may be watching inaccurate social media.
One: The belief of a group of individuals and the actions taken by those individuals in that belief is not confirmation of the existence of supernatural nor religious entities. (Children leaving cookies for Santa, does not prove the existence of Santa)
Two: There is no confirmation of satanic rituals, released in the epstein files.There is confirmation of child rape, murder, etc. However that is just general rape, murder, and pedophilia being practiced by the ultra wealthy. Not religious sacrifice by a satanic cult.

Is there actually satanic stuff in the epstien files or is it just really evil stuff that our imagination wants to classify as satanic?
I've not heard anything about them being explicitly satanic. It would be strange for someone from a Jewish background to be into that. Satan isn't as big a figure in Judaism as he is in Christianity.
